And also thanks to scrapindeb for all her card inspiration!

I made an embossing using the FLOWER TAG file

by Jenn...thanks so much. I think this is the best I have ever made and only because you made this wonderful file.

I first modified the images to make them cover a larger area and then made an embossing, and then printed the outline of the flowers using 2.044 print outlines only, and then I cut that out and embossed it and glued to the sculpted and cut cardbase.

I buy kitchen cutting mats at WM and they are 12 X 15 inch plastic and I cut it with a deep cut blade and housing multicut 4 times, only my blade is dull so I did it 6 times today and it all popped right out.

Then I put a C white plate, and a B plate and then plumbers rubber from HD and then the paper the plastic and then another B plate and then I used 2 kleenex box shims and run it through the embossing machine.

There are many ways to do this however...it will even work to just cut kleenex box cardboard instead of the plastic.
